Mora Companion Heavy Duty MG Knife Self Defense Weapon Review

The Mora Companion Heavy Duty MG Knife is a self defense weapon that is built for heavy duty use. It has a high quality carbon steel blade, high load capacity and it is made with a classic scandi grind technique.

Overall, this heavy duty MG knife measures 9.5-inch x 1.2-inch x 1.2-inch. Then, it weighs around 5 ounces. The self defense weapon is imported from Sweden and it is sold in stores like Amazon around $19.49 to $34.38. It also comes also with a free sheath.

Mora Companion Heavy Duty MG Knife Self Defense Weapon Advantages

The heavy duty knife is made for survivalists. It can be used for carving, hunting and other outdoor activities. Thus, its potential as a self defense weapon is great.

The light weight of the knife makes stabbing or slashing easy, accurate and effective. Strike a vein using this tool and the result would be a serious bleeding. Then, if this is used for stabbing, it has the capability to rupture internal organs which may cause internal bleeding and even death.

In addition, the handle of the knife has a soft high friction grip. This gives the hand a tight grip over the knife and it prevents the hand from slipping into the blade. A strong grip provides the user of this self defense weapon added accuracy as well.

Moreover, the self defense weapon is easy to sharpen due to its scandi grind and high quality carbon. This guarantees its long term use and good performance for a long time.

Mora Companion Heavy Duty MG Knife Self Defense Weapon Disadvantages

The Mora Companion knife is too long to be concealed but it can be strapped in the leg or the belt. The blade may be a little bit short to puncture the vital organs of bigger opponents so always aim for the neck for its maximum effectiveness when no other options for self defense are available.

Again, a knife user is at a disadvantage with long or ranged weapons. So, only use this in close quarter combat situations.

I got this one and a Mora sandvick stainless (much thinner but by and far the sharpest fucking knife I’ve come across minus my Spyderco Tasman Salt, one of my EDCs) the Mora 5.5 (or 5.8)” blade, honestly, is a better all-around EDC fixed blade that is one the larger-end than even my Ka-Bar Tanto, which I love and adore.

The reason I say this is because

1) The Ka-Bar Tanto gets immediate attention, as a deterrent that is good, if the cops are going to bug you that’s bad.

2) State laws

3) The moras consistently get “That looks like a kitchen knife” comments from people, and yeah, they kinda do, or utility knives. And that is exactly what most people who wuold even question you having a knife on you that is visable and fairly large (the mora all-purpose I carry has the 5.8″ blade so I think it’s around 8″ total, give or take).

4) The mora is twice as sharp and probably 25-50% faster than the Ka-Bar Tanto.

5) Between that, my Tops Grim Reaper, my Becker BK-11 (gotta get those micarat handles for it, ironically the materials of the BK-11, with the handles, are slightly higher-grade than the Grim Reaper, and nearly the same amount of steel and material used, but the Tops is $100-150, the BK-11 would be $90 with the handles but the knife is $35 at amazon, the handles are also $35, lol so $70 for a top-shelf BAMF EDC, oh and $5 for the fucking clip, I wear it on my right side for a cross-draw and I can whip out my Spyderco Tasman fairly quickly too for a dual wield). I also carry a “Blachawk” push/punch dagger, fairly small. Aus-8 so entirely decent for the thickness, build, and intent-of-use and the correlation to the design.

Between the 4-5 knives I carry on me every day (and sometimes a Canick TP-9 which I like more than my Glock 19 to be perfectly honest, or my .357 police shooter-six but that’s a full sized revolver, I also carry a S&W bodyguard but as a liberal gun owner, and someone who’s witnessed four shootings, two where people were actually shot, and one where I shot back and question to this day if I made the situation better or worse. Yes I saved-possibly-three people’s lives but I also had to shoot someone who MIGHT not have shot if I hadn’t pulled and escalated the situation, who knows?)

But what I do know is carrying knives, along with mace, or my cane-sword (a proper one, a real one, made at least with 1055 spring steel or 5160, 1095, etc…..
